What is an estimated time for the 800 for a female who ran 1:35 for 600 meters?

2:13
I ran a 1:21.1 in practice the other day...what do you think I can run?
1:35 x ~1.4 so yeah, about 2:13-2:14

1:35 gives you a 2:13.8 on the Mercier Tables, but if you did the 600m TT solo under less than ideal conditions and/or you're more of a strength than speed guy, 2:11 or 2:12 is not out of the question.
A 1:39 600TT netted me a 2:14 a few years ago. My 1500m was 4:42 and 400m 61 flat at the time. Good luck.
YOU ran 1:35 for 600m???? Was it down hill? Did you fly off a cliff perhaps? 1:35 is pretty good.
I assume you were all-out through the 1:35 and not just a controlled effort, yes? If so, 2:10.
If your 1:35 was a controlled effort and there is more gas in the tank than lets shoot for 2:03.

1:21.1 .....come on guys help me out!
1:54
I'm a master's guy who runs 800. My fastest 600 solo is 1:35 (twice). My fastest 800's are 2:06 and 2:07. My secondary event is the 1500 (PR=4:21), and my 400 is 56.2.
If you don't break 2:10, you need more endurance.

Interesting.
I ran a 1:35 solo time trial once. I put full effort into it, but it was on a muddy dirt track.
I ran an 800 meter race the next week. It had plenty of tough competition, and it was my first time seeing an FAT timing system and getting to run on an all-weather track. I got so psyched up about it that I cracked 2:05 (with a 2:04.92).
It's not a 2:03, but it was pretty close.
Typically if you add three seconds to your 600 meter time you can maintain a decent 800 pace. So you ran 1:35 for a 600, which means in a race you should be able to go through the 600 at 1:38 and finish with a 34-35 which like the other have stated gives you a 2:12-2:13.

The young lady in question ended up running 2:10.66. She dropped her PR by 3 seconds. Thanks to all that put in their "two cents worth."
I saw Mike Stember on June 7th in SoCal run an 800. He ran 1:21 for 600M and then finished at 1:49.75. He was really tying up the last 50M. Can you run like Mike?
Wow, Gerry Lindgren guessed right to the second... what a god.
